The dinosaur party theme is a versatile theme that can work for you son or daughter. Girls can dig dinosaurs too! My son turned 6 and he couldn’t make up his mind on what he wanted but I was so glad he chose this theme over Star Wars mostly because I don’t care for commercialized themes. It’s just a personal preference not because there is anything wrong with them.

Anyways back to our Dinosaur party, it was a blast and the kids loved all the simple activities and dinosaur themed treats.

Invites:

I always forget to snap a photo of the invites mostly because I am making the same day and trying to get them to his classmates before the end of the day. Basically, I used plastic eggs and I put an invite inside it. You can get creative and also put a plastic dino in it or a gummy dino.

The Cake

It turned out amazing and delicious! It’s chocolate with caramel filling and fondant.

The Party Favors

I had a really hard time deciding on this because there were so many options to go with. I really wanted to make them their own personal volcano but that didn’t happen. Then there was dinosaur soap with a toy dinosaur inside, but realistically that involved too much work for me. So this was the perfect gift for our little explorers. It’s practical so it can be used again by their parents for painting and cooking or the kids for pretend play. They used this favor at the party for our excavation hunt. They really got into it. It was a paint brush with a dinosaur sticker on it and a mini strainer kept together with ribbon.

I finally realized I should be searching for tea strainers and that got me better results. I was having a hard time finding small ones. The ones in your pictures only sell online to wholesales I think. I’m going to check a few dollar stores and such now that I know what exactly I’m looking for. Thanks!!
